In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn’t feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?

    The only problem with services as a subscription is THE FUCKING IDIOTS THAT PAY FOR THEM

    If nobody fell for shit like that, manufacturers would drop it like boiling diarrhea

      This is true.

      Go and buy a car from a manufacturer who doesn’t insist on subscriptions… whilst you still can!

        Something like the XBUS seems like a good choice. They seem to focus on the important and practical stuff, and I can’t find any information about any sort of related subscription.

        This is where capitalism is thriving because people are dumb

        Fixed. It thrives on human stupidity and laziness
